Valiant gives away big bucks at party

Dancehall artiste Valiant left jaws dropping as he gave away more than $200,000 during money pull ups at a Christmas party in Stony Hill, St Andrew.

The giveaway happened on Christmas Day at the annual street dance, North Pole, organised by disc jock Didi of Team Extreme. Didi told THE WEEKEND STAR that Valiant, his former schoolmate, walked to the stage while he played Masicka’s track Reverse Time.

“The event, a my event, keep a Lawrence Tavern a Paisley border.

Didi said that he received about $180,000, while Valiant threw at least another $20,000 into the crowd.

“But to be honest, him dash weh way more than that,” he said, explaining that other individuals, including Valiant’s DJ also gave away money.

“To be honest, random girls inna the crowd get over $200,000 too, and dem spend over 200,000 a the bar too,” Didi revealed. He also responded to some users on social media who argued that the monies should have been given to females and not to other men.

“Who is at the party know wah really gwaan, and dem see how much time dem bring money and say give the girl dem and Valiant wasn’t the only one at the party giving away money,” he said.

Valiant also defended his actions to the crowd.

“No bother feel like we deh yah a squander because a before we never have it we believe. Anything you a do, believe inna yourself, mek who wah screw, screw … if mi wah dash weh a mil, mi dash weh a mil,” he said.
